Title: Another Billy Shipp dip.
Post by: Mike Gerardi on March 09, 2012, 05:55:00 PM
Returned home from a Texas hunt and decided to ship my Tall Tines to Mr.Shipp for some cammo dipping. I requested the Natural Gear patten and left the rest to Billy.  I just recieved the bow today and it was impressive. Mr.Shipp said the natural gear cammo on the TallTines had generated alot of conversation in his Texas town. Here are some pics.

Looks great Mike. I had one done in UltimateCamo and it has a similar look to it. Very effective!

Nice Mike! don't lean it up against a tree and take your eyes off of it. It might vanish right before your eyes.

Wow, that is one fine looking camo job!  That bow looks more like the trees it's leaning on than the trees!

from some of the popular threads Ive read, I'm a bit surprised someone here doesn't have a bow dipped in plaid?  :)

Thanks everyone. Billy did a fantastic job with the dip and finish, it's rock solid. I had it outside this morning and I'm liking it even more.

You guys really have a lot of faith in yourselves.  Forget about leaning the bow, what about just laying it down.  Any bow with a camo finish will just disappear.  I would hate to lose a bow because of that.  That being said, it is a beautiful finish.  Good luck with it, make some meat.

That looks great! I had Mr. Shipp dip my Lost Creek longbow and it really draws a lot of attention at the 3-D shoots! Mr. Shipp does great work!

I've had a couple of them dipped in different predator patterns, and Billy does a great job.   :thumbsup:
